Muck Fichigan!!

 

Hail to those mother .

Hail to those big suckers.

Hail, Hail, Michigan.

The cesspool of the land!

 

\:D/

 

You guys sad you didn’t get Mack?

 

Also how can anyone take any joy in Michigan’s football failings anymore? It’s been a decade of consistent failure

 

 

Question #1 - No. It would be nice to have him, sure. But he cost quite a bit, both in the draft and financially. Great pickup for the Bears.....if they get decent QB play moving forward. And Mack stays healthy. Number 1 picks are a lot to give up, but you've got to give up a lot to get a player like Mack.

 

Question #2 - F Michigan! Go Bloe!!

How did Willie Taggart get the FSU job again? In his 3 previous head coaching jobs he was over .500 only once and that was last year when he went 7-5 in his only year at Oregon.

Not over .500 overall at those previous 2 jobs but both times he took over garbage situations and quickly made them better. He may yet flame out at FSU, and they certainly were bad tonight, but this team was an Independence Bowl team last year.

Failing to throw a red challenge flag when his receiver was called down at the 1 yd line, then that awful 2-minute drill before halftime was some pretty bad coaching by Taggart.

Wasn't the main reason because the QB blew out his knee in week 1? I don't think they've have a signing class outside the top 10 in the past 4 years with two being top 5 classes. Talent shouldn't be an issue.

It's entirely possible ND's defense is just freaking great, but Michigan just didn't look like they've changed much of anything from last year offensively except going shotgun a little more often. Kind of a weird game overall.

 

Michigan fans seeing why Patterson actually transferred and it wasn't because he wanted to play in a bowl this year. He was going to be the 2nd string QB at Ole Miss.

 

He's not that good.

 

He didn’t look that bad to me. He was constantly under pressure and was on the run a lot. I thought he tucked it too early a few times, lost Michigan 3 points by taking a 17 yard sack, the INT was whatever but the fumble shouldn’t have happened. I hear that’s a problem he had last year.

 

Anyways NDs defense might be stout who knows but it was really defensive mistakes that killed Michigan. Not able to contain winovich, penalties on 3rd downs, 3rd down conversions in general, didn’t matter if it was 3rd and 2 or 3rd and 18, just couldn’t get off the field.

 

Oh well have several more shots to win “big games” or if they lose them all as usual cement themselves as a team that never ever wins any game of any importance

he more or less looked fine, but it's hard to judge with the worst tackle play conceivable, not that the interior was any great shakes either

 

how did that not show itself in practice when these guys face the best DEs in the nation

Well, that QB was the same one that piloted them to all of 3 points last night, so maybe his injury wasn't as big a factor as we've been led to believe.

It's also a brand new coaching staff with the previous HC being known for making QB's.
